Objective: To describe and characterise treated psychotic disorders in the Indigenous populations of Cape York and the Torres Strait.
Design: Cross-sectional analysis of patients with a psychotic disorder identified by treating psychiatrists.
Setting and participants: Indigenous patients aged 15 years in Cape York and Torres Strait communities receiving treatment for a psychotic disorder over 3 months in 2010.
Main outcome measures: Prevalence of psychosis diagnoses, intellectual disability, and substance use comorbidities.
Results: 171 patients were included. The prevalence rate in this population was 1.68%, higher for males (2.60%) than females (0.89%), and twice as high in the Aboriginal (2.05%) …
